Job 4:17-19
Easy-to-Read Version
17 ‘A person cannot be more right than God.
People cannot be more pure than their Maker.
18 Look, God cannot even trust his heavenly servants.
He sees faults even in his angels.
19 So surely people are worse!
They live in houses of clay[a] built on dust.
They can be crushed as easily as a moth!
